This should be decent:

Or, you might want to get a 50 trim for better spoolup.

That's a straight T4, and even if the trim and A/R numbers weren't so high, it'd be a bit large for a ZC. I'm not sure if the ZC would be able to completely spool it.

If you want to run a T4 compressor, I would run a T3/T04E, .48 turbine and .60 compressor and either 50 or 57 trim. That should be more than enough to suit your needs now, and when you're ready to increas your boost level, yet still retain a decent spoolup.

A/R is the area/radius ratio of a turbine or compressor.

Are those specs from a T3/T04E? If so, that should be fine, but I believe you can get them with the same specs, but with a 50 trim compressor wheel, which would spool a little quicker.
